7114. 'As you did yesterday and the day before' means not as in the previous state. This is clear from the meaning of 'yesterday and the day before' as the past, dealt with in 6987. And since all periods of time mean states, 2625, 2788, 2837, 3254, 3356, 4814, 4882, 4901, 4916, 'yesterday and the day before' accordingly means a previous state.
